wilson's interaction with brown while he was in the street before shooting him to death. contrast it with what we saw later when a militarized presence used tear gas and rubber bullets to repel protesters, at least until ron johnson was put in charge on thursday. as officer krebs and captain johnson show, community policing isn't impossible and you can know how to do it and do it right if you don't dress for war. joining me now from ferguson, missouri, marva robinson, a licensed psychologist and president of the association of black psychologists. very nice to have you this morning. >> thank you. so you were part of a group that came out immediately after the death of mr. brown and set up some counseling opportunities for people in the community experiencing a kind of ptsd? tell me about that. >> we felt it was very important we showed the community we were here. we understand the psychological traumas that they may have been experiencing, so we simply walk the streets up and down the apartment complex engaging the youth, the parents, grandparents, anyone that was willing

we need to know who is darren wilson. where is he? what's his history in the department. what does his statement say in the report? hearing the police chief come back as you said after the press conference and say, he saw the cigars in the hand. why don't you show us the document in which officer wilson describes what he saw, what he encountered, what he did, and why he did it? it's an outrage that we are here today and that they came out purporting to give us information and have given us no information -- verifiable information about the shooting. we've got to stay focused at this moment. this issue is not about mike brown's character. this is about the conduct of the ferguson police department. honestly, since we first learned about this incident, they have made either mistakes or very deliberate efforts to distract us from the important issue here. >> what is it going to take to get the incident report you're talking about that describes the shooting and the police version? what does it take for that to see the light of day. >> i'm afraid it will take the litigation t
